-- url of the page with the problem -- : the-authors-club.com/index.php/ourauthor...nnifer-wheatley-wolf
-- HikaShop version -- : HikaShop Business: 2.2.1
-- Joomla version -- : 3.15
-- PHP version -- : 5.3.27
-- Browser(s) name and version -- : Internet Explorer 9
-- Error-message(debug-mod must be tuned on) -- : There is no error.

I created two custom fields (links) for my vendors to use: a link for their Facebook pages and a link for their personal websites. How can I make it so that these two custom fields show up on their vendor pages? I have "front-end" checked in the custom fields settings.

Thanks.

Hi,

In the custom field configuration page, you can select more than "frontend/backend" for the HikaMarket fields.
demo.hikashop.com/administrator/index.ph...=field&task=edit&cid []=40
You have also:
* Vendor page
* Vendor listing

I saw those after I posted the question. Is there a way to display those fields, like:
Facebook: www.facebook.com/mypage
Website: www.mywebsite.com

I only see the words "Facebook" and "Website" as links. I'd like the actual links to show, not just those words... if that's not possible, can I use some icons to show?
Thanks.

I don't understand your question.

If you'll look at this vendor's page, you'll see her profile and the word, "Website" above it, which is a link. Is there a way to show it as "Website: www.mywebsite.com "?

Hi,

Did you tried to enter/save a value for the custom field ?
For what I see in your website, there is no link configured. That's why you don't see the link url.
The second cell is right there, just nothing to display:

Yes, there's a value there for two of my vendors. I can see where they entered their websites in that field and their profiles have been saved.

Hi,

Right.
I don't know exactly why but the link value is not right read by the HikaShop "getFields" function.
So for the moment, the best is to open the view "frontend | your_frontend_template | vendormarket | showcontainer_default" and replace

echo $this->fieldsClass->show($oneExtraField, $this->vendorFields->$fieldName);
By:
echo $this->fieldsClass->show($oneExtraField, $this->vendor->$fieldName);
It will be fix in the next release (and I will investigate in order to understand why this custom field type does not load the value correctly).
